[Nexus S Android Development] denimjunkie82:
Has anyone successfully completely turned off the capacitive button backlights? Not just set the timer to 0, but completely disable them so they don't turn on in the first place.

I'm currently using SimpleKernel, with enable softkeys, with NS Tools backlight dimmer set to 0ms delay. It still lights up when I wake up the phone, and turns off only after I touch them.

I've used a few other kernels but having compatibility issues. Maybe I haven't found the right combination of tweaks yet?

I was wondering if you could give us the link to the tools you are using (apktool, sign and zipalign tool) and a "how to?" for compiling our selves.

I know it's a lot to ask, but i really want to compil this mod.

Everytime i have problem. I can decompil and rebuild the framework.

But eveytime it's not work or the rom won,'t boot.

I have a nexus s 4g, I get installation aborted in recovery.
[Nexus S Android Development] kjaved373:
!MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP FIRST!

Here's what I did:

extract the framework-res.apk from the zip.

Change the file name of the current framework-res.apk file in /system/framework/ to .apk.bk so its still there in case u need it. You'll get some random force closes, just OK them.

Copy the extracted file from the zip to that directory, and reboot to recovery, fix permissions.

Reboot and it should be there! :)

I changed density using rom toolbox to 210.

Sorry, but I don't know how to make a flashable zip so this method will have to do.

Can't wait to be home to test it!

So at work i just compiled a framework under Windows XP without the android sdk. I replace it on my path by the directory "other" of the folder

apk_multi-tool (can't update sdk because of the proxy) and it's working.

I'm currently running CNA 3.2.1 with Softkey!

This is so great, i can change the color of the softkey, and set action for lonpress softey!

Other setting give me reboots. But it's more than enought.

What's been happening is I'm apple to rename, paste, etc fine, but once the current framework is renamed to .apk.bk, everything starts crashing and you said that's fine. So I reboot into recovery, fix permissions, and reboot. The Nexus boot animation just keeps going and going.

Don't fix permissions in recovery then. Rename file - Copy framework-res.apk into dir - change permissions using app - then reboot.

I noticed that your running kwiboo's v2 rom so that might be the problem. if u want, and i recommend it, upgrade to brainmaster's v2. that might do the trick. :)

I really would make one but i tried making zips and failed. Since you seem to have the time, why not spend some time looking it up and doing it yourself? That way, in the future you could easily do it instead having to wait for someone to do it for you.

[Nexus S Android Development] batting1000:
Step 1: Get the framework-res.apk out of the koush zip in the OP

Step 2: Put it on the root of your sdcard/usb storage

Step 3: Rename it to framework-res1.apk

Step 4: Paste it in system/framework

Step 5: Set permissions to rw-r--r--, while still in root explorer

Step 6: Rename the original framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk.bk

Step 7: Rename the new one (with the 1) to framework-res.apk

Step 8: Reboot.

In /system/usr/keylayout/cypress-touchkey.kl try deleting the actions (so delete BACK, HOME etc.).

Though I never tried it before, this should render the buttons non-functional. As for the lights, the best I can think of is using Backlight Dimmer and setting it to 1ms.

[Nexus S Android Development] McDV:
Hey guys!

The on-screen buttons are nice, but in fact it's only 4 buttons (BACK, HOME, RECENT APPS and - if suitable - MENU).

Now our Nexus S has 4 softkeys, with just the difference, that we have a search-key, but no specific key for recent apps. For that we need to hold down the home-key.

Well, I think it would be very great, if we could remap the SEARCH-key to make it display the recent apps!

I don't know how to do that, but maybe some dev likes that idea and knows how to do that. :)
